To my beautiful baby girl. I was your first mother. Please know I loved you . . . You are my whole heart.
The letter Taryn finds in her mother’s antique jewelry box changes everything.
It’s the first clue to who she really is.
Then a faded hospital bill leads her to Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. There she persuades reluctant private investigator Bryce Elliott to help her find her birth mother.
The next clue leads to a rambling farmhouse down a remote country lane. A young Amish woman in a white prayer cap serves her breakfast — and Taryn gasps in shock. The girl has extraordinary violet eyes — just like her own.
Taryn has found her birth family . . . but finding the truth is harder.
Bryce and Taryn try to find out what really happened to her mother all those years ago. And Bryce’s cold exterior begins to thaw.
Then Taryn gets a text: Roses are red, violets are blue. You can hide, but I’ll find you . . .
